Description

Nambé Polished Alloy & Wood "Tree" Jewelry Stand with Catch Bowl

A sculptural Nambé jewelry tree pairing the brand's signature mirror-polished alloy with a warm wooden catch bowl. The branching armature rises from the center of the dish in a stylized bare-tree silhouette — four main limbs splitting into tapered twigs designed to hold rings, chains, bracelets, and earrings while the bowl below catches loose pieces, watches, or pocket contents at the end of the day.

The piece carries the etched nambé wordmark at the base of the trunk where it meets the bowl. Nambé, founded in 1951 in Nambé Pueblo, New Mexico, built its reputation on the proprietary eight-metal alloy developed by Martin Eden, and the brand has since extended into wood, crystal, and acrylic collaborations with designers including Karim Rashid and Sean O'Hara. This tree-and-bowl form falls within the company's contemporary lifestyle line — equal parts functional vanity piece and tabletop sculpture.


CONDITION

Very Good. Minor scuffs to the polished alloy consistent with light use; the wooden bowl retains its finish with no notable marks. Maker's mark is crisp and legible.
